2oz sample kindly served as an exception. Appearance: a bit hazy blonde with a white head. Aroma: floral, citrusy. Taste: quite bitter, earthy, dry, finishes with piney bitterness. Overall: ok.
This would’ve been brilliant eight years ago. Enjoyable, but average.

Draft at the Angry Pepper, Seminole. Light gold, a little hazy with a small white head and considerable lacing. Juicy citrus and pineapple aroma with notes of pine. Bitterness in the juicyvtaste, just enough to round out the immense flavour. Bit of kumquat in the finish. Carbonation on the heavy side. Great.

Purchased at Green Bench in St Pete, FL as a 16oz 6 pack. Exceptionally good IPA, nice bitterness & sweetness, very tropical, easy drinking, will go to this again!

Can at Doc Ford's on Sanibel Island FL Pours a hazy lemon yellow with a decent sized bubbly white head. Sweet bready maltiness with hints of toast. Earthy pine and citrus hops to counter. Not bad.

Can from natures food patch. Pour is a big giant white head with barely any beer in the bottom. What does exist is clear pale yellow. Nose is mild diesel and BO perfume. First taste is an odd almost dull flavor of pine tar. LOL, I find nothing reminiscent of tangerine, nectar, papaya, peach, kiwi, and pineapple. Its just simple bitter ass beer, like most IPA. At least its got a little kick in the alky department that detracts me from the full flavored hops impression that it is. Some rubber inner tube in there. Like chewing on rubber inner tubes? Just asking. IF you do, try this one on for size. So big, so large, so in-charge for an IPA that its more bitter than I expected. It comes across like a double IPA but its ABV is only simple IPA. There you have it. Quite an over the top in hop bitter flavor of an IPA. Whew, what else can be said? Its a hop bomb fer sher.

Can from CW online. It pours pale golden - yellow with a fluffy white head. The aroma is fresh, fragrant, zingy, lemon, lemongrass, pine, tropical vibes, kiwi and papaya. The taste is crisp, dry, bitter, clean, snappy, piney, green, weedy, dank edge, peppery spice, pithy, zesty, tangerine, orange peel, papaya, nip of alcohol with a drying, green finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Straightforward but enjoyable and moreish.

Keg at #73, 28/02/20. Clear golden blonde with a white cap. Nose is melon, tangerine, grass, orange zest, leafy hops. Taste comprises orange peel, grapefruit, airy malts, melon, grass, toasted grains. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with balanced hop bitterness. Middle the road kind of an IPA.

Keg at 73 Enid Street. A clear orange golden coloured pour with a thin white head. Aroma is light toffee, resin, dirty pine, sap, mellow dank. Flavour is composed of semi sweet toffee, metallic, piney hop, grassy bitterness,. Firm slightly metallic bitterness. Palate is semi sweet, little thin, moderate carbonation. Decent old /new school ipa.
